Now people are selling them at premium prices which will then increase its seales volume for new ones at higher prices 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weez911 Supersonic July 3, 2019 Share July 3, 2019 (edited) I won't read too much into Theo & Harris's articles if I were you. I think they have not done much fact-checking before they publish their videos or articles. In some videos, they can't even get the basic watch models and their movement references right. However, that Christian kid has a good presentation style, and that's about it. A good click-bait at best. It's hard to categorise "mainstream" brand because everyone has his own opinion/definition. Just buy the watch we like and enjoy wearing. Edited July 3, 2019 by Weez911 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spanly 5th Gear July 3, 2019 Share July 3, 2019 My Tag Heuer Automatic watch stopped working few days back... the same also happened around 4 to 5 yrs back which I brought down to the authorised service center & they did a servicing which cost $400+. I supposed I'll need to bring the watch down again for another servicing to bring it back to life. Is this normal for an automatic watch? Meaning just like our car, automatic watches needs to go for servicing at some regular interval? For my case, is it worthwhile to spend another 500 bucks (assuming some increased in price over these few yrs) meaning the 2 servicing would cost almost 50% of the cost of my watch? For the more higher end watches like Omega & Rolex, also need the regular servicing? Pardon my noob question & TIA 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spanly 5th Gear July 3, 2019 Share July 3, 2019 More likely breakdown and hence need for repair than servicing. But on both occasions the watch just didn't move after i've winded them on Mon morning before going off to work... I didn't dropped the watch or overwind it etc.. If i recalled, the feedback for the last "repair" was that the watch need to be service like in applying lubricant to the parts... so really like our car need go change engine oil Or using a watch winder would help as it would keep the watch moving without the need to do a weekly rewind? I don't wear the watch from Fri to Sun & the power reserve normally don't last more than 2 days. ↡ Advertisement 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
